Anyway that left Monday week to get on with the van. Been running in the evening too so I've been tired and grumpy. Anyway. Fitted both side skirts. What a tw@ of a job bending brackets etc back and forth back and forth, then I ran out of penny rivets, done them now and just short of some plum jacking the sills op by the skirts I don't think they're going anywhere.


I drove over one of the bridges with lots of people waving to many many motorcycles on sat... somewhere near Leicester. Have you jacked the van up yet?

Raised it? It's high enough with the wheels, it has moon boots and it's small in height which kind of goes against the look,I don't want it looking ricer if I can help it but I'm thinking roof rails and a small spoiler. To make the height look ok. But I need it lower than 7 feet tall to get under most barriers.
